The Cottagers coped admirably without him as they ruined Chris Hughton's first league game in charge of Norwich by recording a 5-0 thrashing courtesy of goals from Damien Duff, Steve Sidwell, Alex Kacaniklic and double from debutant Mladen Petric.

The home fans greeted Fulham's fifth strike - a fierce penalty from Sidwell - by chanting 'Are you watching Clint Dempsey?'.

"I don't want to hear the fans were chanting against him because he was a terrific player for us," Jol told a press conference.
